GAME PRESERVES WASTEFUL OF WATER GUN CLUBS IN LOWLANDS RESPONSIBLE FOR RUNNING ARTESIAN WATER IN OCEAN LEGAL STEPS TO BE TAKEN TO PROTECT IRRIGATORS AND STOP WASTE WATER That determined steps shall be taken to secure from the next session of the legislature passage of a law which will be effectual in checking the enormous waste of artesian water by the gun clubs and other users in the lowlands, was the gist of the action taken by the Associated Chambers of Commerce at the monthly meeting held at Huntington Beach last Wednesday evening. The report made by the committee showed that thousands of inches of water are continually going to waste, that millions of mosquitoes are being bred as a result, and that unless some deterrent action be taken the condition will not only result in serious loss to the ranchers of the county, but will probably cause a plague of malaria in the lowlands. The meeting was held in Odd Fellows' hall, with about 75 delegates present. A very toothsome banquet was served, and at its conclusion President Zimmerman called the meeting to order and T. B. Talbert of Huntington Beach welcomed the guests in a few appropriate words. Response was made by H. C. Head, of Santa Ana. L. H. Wallace, of Newport Beach, for the harbor committee, reported that the government engineers had itic. He suggested that the association could gather data regarding oppressive rates by railroads and express companies, present them to the supervisors and have that body order the district attorney to proceed in court. He thought incorporation would be an unnecessary expense. On motion A. A. Mills was appointed a committee to gather data in regard to rates now in effect in the county which are regarded as excessive. President Zimmerman called Vice-President Wallace to the chair, and speaking as a member of the Santa Ana Chamber of Commerce, called attention to the continuous work which that body has done in advertising the county as a whole, showing that the bulk of its work has been county and not city exploitation. He then moved that the association recommend to the board of supervisors that an appropriation of $500 annually be made for the purpose of keeping up a county bureau of publicity in the Santa Ana Chamber of Commerce, which, he said, is the clearing house for county advertising. Lew H. Wallace moved to amend by making the amount $600, the money to be used in the maintenance of county exhibits and the distribution of literature through the Santa Ana body. The amendment was accepted and the motion carried. It was pointed out that some months ago the Santa Ana chamber invited other communities to place exhibits in that city on payment of a small rental, but under the proposed arrangement their exhibits would be maintained without cost to them. It was also suggested that as the secretary of the association is also the Santa Ana secretary, the work could be carried on under the direct supervision of the association. W. A. Griffith, of Huntington Beach, referred to the action of the association at its last meeting, in which it commended to the supervisors that something be done to provide a coast road, and said that unless something were done along this line he was but will probably cause a plague of malaria in the lowlands. The meeting was held in Odd Fellows' hall, with about 75 delegates present. A very toothsome banquet was served, and at its conclusion President Zimmerman called the meeting to order and T. B. Talbert of Huntington Beach welcomed the guests in a few appropriate words. Response was made by H. C. Head, of Santa Ana. L. H. Wallace, of Newport Beach, for the harbor committee, reported that the government engineers had completed their preliminary survey of the bay, and that he, in company with some of the engineers, had spent a day in looking over the surrounding country for rock which would be suitable for the building of jetties. Close to the site of the proposed work they had found an abundant supply of rock which was apparently of the quality desired, but it would have to be analyzed before a final decision could be made. Mr. Wallace said the report of the engineers in regard to the survey would have to go first to Washington and then back to the Los Angeles office and it would probably be three or four months before the findings are made known. A. S. Bradford, of Placentia, chairman of the committee appointed at the last meeting to look into the matter of the waste of water, reported that he had communicated with the District Attorney, and in turn had received a letter quoting from the two laws now existing on the subject, showing that they are so loosely drawn as to be virtually ineffective. One provision is to the effect that none of the provisions of the law shall be effective against the storage of unlimited water in reservoirs, provided it shall be afterward put to some "beneficial use." Another allows the perpetual flow of one-tenth of a miner's inch for each acre owned. The District Attorney seemed to be of the opinion that it was useless to attempt action under the present laws. R. D. Richards, of Bay City, another member of the committee, reported the results of his investigations. He had found that at many of the gun clubs hundreds of inches of water were being allowed to flow continually into Anaheim bay, the total waste running up into the thousands of inches. He said that on many of the duck-ponds mosquitos were being bred in such numbers that "the water seemed to boil." His investigations indicated that most of the clubs made no effort whatever to conserve the water. The committee made no recommendation as to action, and President Zimmerman said that as it seemed to would be maintained without cost to them. It was also suggested that as the secretary of the association is also the Santa Ana secretary, the work could be carried on under the direct supervision of the association. W. A. Griffith, of Huntington Beach, referred to the action of the association at its last meeting, in which it commended to the supervisors that something be done to provide a coast road, and said that unless something were done along this line he was afraid the coast cities would turn down the good roads bonds. Mr. Wallace stated that he had interviewed the supervisors on that line, and while it was not in their power to act officially at present, they had expressed themselves individually as in favor of devoting $15,000 to $20,000, or more if it could be spared, from this year's funds to the building of a coast road. Mr. Wallace expressed himself as highly gratified at the stand taken by the supervisors, saying it would be entirely satisfactory to his section. Mr. Griffith also expressed his gratification, not having known of the promise made by the supervisors, and said it would satisfy his community. T. B. Talbert, of Huntington Beach, spoke of the importance of working for the good roads bonds, saying that if by chance the issue should be defeated the people would demand another election soon, and even frequent elections until the proposition should carry. He suggested that frequent meetings be held in the various communities of the county to boost the bonds. G. W. Minter in charge of the work in Santa Ana, reported that he was organizing each of the precincts in the city, and that 10 days before the election he would have a poll showing how the vote would go. On motion the president was authorized to appoint a campaign committee, in addition to the district captains already named, to have charge of any speakings which may be decided on through the county. An invitation to hold the next meeting at Newport Beach on the last Wednesday in October was accepted. YEAR'S CRÔPS NINE BILLION Farmers of Country Flourishing in Flood Tide of Prosperity Nine billions of dollars have been added to the national wealth by the phenomenal crops of 1912, and an era of unexampled prosperity for all classes is drawing, according to Secretary James Wilson of the Department of Agriculture. had found that at many of the gun clubs hundreds of inches of water were being allowed to flow continually into Anaheim bay, the total waste running up into the thousands of inches. He said that on many of the duck-ponds mosquitos were being bred in such numbers that "the water seemed to boil." His investigations indicated that most of the clubs made no effort whatever to conserve the water. The committee made no recommendation as to action, and President Zimmerman said that, as it seemed to be principally a question of securing proper laws, the best plan would be to appoint a committee to go to Sacramento next winter and urge action by the legislature. S. M. Davis, of Santa Ana, spoke on the weak points of the present laws, and W. A. Cornelius, of Newport Beach, reported that the improvement associations of Artesia and Compton had taken the matter up for their own protection. On motion of A. A. Mills the president was authorized to add three members to the committee, one of whom should be the district attorney and the others preferably lawyers. This committee is to report at the next meeting on the best method of securing adequate legislation. The president named on the committee S. M. Davis and H. C. Head of Santa Ana. H. C. Head, chairman of the committee appointed to consider the advisability of incorporating the association, made a report in which he advised against such action. He said that in his opinion complaints against unjust rates could be sustained by the association in its present form, and also by Orange county as a body polling at Newport Beach on the last Wednesday in October was accepted. YEAR'S CRÔPS NINE BILLION Farmers of Country Flourishing in Flood Tide of Prosperity Nine billions of dollars have been added to the national wealth by the phenomenal crops of 1912, and an era of unexampled prosperity for all classes is drawing, according to Secretary James Wilson of the Department of Agriculture, after a tour of western states. On this trip he made observations on which he will base his annual estimates. Declaring that homesteading in the West, which in a large measure accounts for the bumper crops, is also responsible for the high price of beef, which will go still higher before it falls to normal again, Secretary Wilson said: "The day of Indians, cowboys and cattle barons has passed. The great cattle ranges have been cut up by homesteaders who have not yet started to breed cattle. When they do the land will support more cattle to the acre than it ever did in the days of the ranges and the price of meat will come down. "The killing of calves must be stopped if the rise in the cost of living is to be checked. Beef is more healthful than veal, and there is every reason in favor of raising beef. The increase in the price of meats leads to a corresponding increase in the price of all necessities. The solution of the problem is in the hands of the people themselves. If there is no market for veal there will be no calves slaughtered." Sugar beet growers of California, Arkansas and states are being aided by beet web-worm," a parasitic beet fields in some seas.

REPUBLICANS TO FIGHT MOOSE USURPERS THIRD PARTY ELECTORS NOT TO APPEAR ON BALLOT WITHOUT CONTEST MUST PLACE NAMES UPON BALLOT ONLY BY PETITION, AND UNDER PROPER TITLE Whether the Attorney-General of California approves the action of Secretary of State Frank Jordan in placing two Republican lists of Presidential electors upon the ballot form or not, the Taft Republicans, who insist they are the only Republicans in the field, will fight to prevent the usurping the name "Republican" by the third or national Progressive party. The form under the primary law must be submitted by the Secretary of State to the Attorney-General and by him approved before the ballots are printed. Jordan says he is placing two tickets of Presidential electors upon the ballot, because he wants to be fair and give the supporters of each a chance to vote. When Jordan first made the proposition, the third party leaders at once agreed to his plan. The Taft Republicans, however, are objecting to it, and will fight it in the courts if necessary. The Republicans, who were members of the Republican convention at Sacramento, believe the Presidential electors nominated by them and filed with the Secretary of State have the right to the Republican column on the ballot, and are planning to fight for that right. They take the position—and south- SUES FACTORY FOR $10,000 Santa Ana Boy Asks Damages From Co-operative Company Suit for $10,000 damages has been brought by John L. Trembley, aged 17, through his guardian, Mrs. May A. Thembley, his mother, against the Southern California Sugar Company. The complaint states that Trembley was hurt at 5 o'clock on the morning of August 18. He had been working for the factory three days. On the evening of August 17 he was put to work at removing beets to keep the pulp cutter from clogging. While removing a beet Trembley's left hand was crushed and all but two fingers had to be amputated. The complaint alleges that Trembley was inexperienced, and was put to work on the pulp cutter without warning or instructions as to the dangerous character of the work, that he was allowed to work long hours and that the responsibility for the accident lies with the sugar company. On these allegations the suit is brought. HOUSEHOLD NOTES If your suede shoes become shiny rub them with fine sandpaper. Good bacon is known by its thin rind and firm fat of a pinkish white.

S. BU (Southern) When Jordan first made the proposition, the third party leaders at once agreed to his plan. The Taft Republicans, however, are objecting to it, and will fight it in the courts if necessary. The Republicans, who were members of the Republican convention at Sacramento, believe the Presidential electors nominated by them and filed with the Secretary of State have the right to the Republican column on the ballot, and are planning to fight for that right. They take the position—and southern Republicans have agreed with them—that the only method by which the third party delegates may be placed upon the ballot is by petition. They maintain that under the primary law the national Progressive party was not a party at the last general election, and, therefore, did not cast 3 per cent of the vote. Consequently, they contend there are but three parties in the field under the law—Republican, Socialist and Democratic. They insist there can be but one Republican party and but one list of Republican Presidential electors upon the ballot. Attorneys acting for the regular Republicans have for some time been preparing to bring suits if the third party electors are placed upon the ballot other than by petition, or if the Taft electors are excluded from the ballot. Until something definite is announced from Sacramento on the Jordan plan, it is not probable that the suits will be brought. One it is understood, will be to mandamus the Secretary of State to place the Taft electors upon the ballot in the Republican column and another suit will be initiated to enjoin the third-party electors' names from being used as Republican electors of any sort. The attorneys who have been at work on the cases have not been announced yet as the attorneys for the Republican party, but they are working with the knowledge of the Republican National Committee and will appear for the Republicans if the suits are deemed necessary within the next few days. The announcement by Francis J. Heney, before the Sacramento convention, that the courts of California dare not rule against the Roosevelt men is not worrying the attorneys for the Taft men. Heney gave the impression that because of the recall, judges would fear to make rulings that might impair the efficiency of the direct primary law.

DEALS DEATH TO WEB-WORM Department of Agriculture Issues Bulletin to Beet Growers Sugar beet growers of Colorado, California, Arkansas and other western states are being aided by the government in their fight against the "sugar beet web-worm," a parasitic pest ruining beet fields in some sections. The Department of Agriculture has issued a special instruction bulletin to beet growers, written by H. O. Marsh, the entomologist, who has spent the last two years in investigations. Sprays of paris green are the best remedies to kill the bugs, Marsh says. Mixtures of the poison with whale-oil soap or lime are recommended. Common laundry soap may be substituted. The cost of spraying is estimated at $1 to $2 an acre. Beet growers usually receive $5 per ton for their beets. The pests have caused a loss of from one to five tons of beets per acre, the agricultural experts declare. In the Arkansas valley alone, the loss in 1911 was $100,000. The Ohio Suffragists paraded with soap boxes, but it is not safe to infer from this that they are familiar with the wash tub. J. F.
